The Big Exhale, for your team
A day on the water for your team, or two, or three. Step away from the office together, rest properly, and go back clearer.
Tuesday 6, Wednesday 7 and Thursday 8 April 2027. Up to 12 people. The whole house is yours.
Your best people are tired in a way a long weekend won't fix
They are the ones everyone relies on. They are fine in the meeting and wired at midnight, and the holiday they took in January wore off by February. Usually nothing has gone wrong. They have simply been carrying a lot for a long time.
The Big Exhale for teams is a calm, unhurried day in work time, in a private waterfront house on the bay at Corlette, with the house entirely yours. There is no agenda to present and no slides to sit through. Your team eats well around one long table and goes deep with Anna through a full day of relaxation and healing, so the tiredness actually lifts and stays lifted when they are back at their desks.
What people take back to work
Calm under pressure
People stay steady when the pressure is on, instead of snapping, rushing or shutting down.
Less blame, more ownership
When people feel safe, they stop defending themselves and start owning the problem.
Fewer triggers
The email, the comment, the deadline: the things that used to set people off lose their grip.
Trusting their gut
Deep rest quietens the noise, so people hear their own intuition and decide with confidence.
Presence that wins business
Grounded, energised people are easier to trust. Clients feel the difference, in the room and on the call.
More energy, real relationships
Better sleep, steadier energy, and honest conversations that carry on back at the office.
"I arrived frazzled and exhausted. By the end I felt calm, focused and more like myself again."
Not a day off. A day back to themselves.
This is not team building and it is not a spa day. It is a full day of deep relaxation and healing, held by Anna from start to finish. Each practice clears a layer of what your people have been carrying, the old patterns, the stress stored in the body, the noise in the head, so they can return to who they are at their best.
Arrive and land
Shoes off, tea on the terrace, phones away. Everyone settles into the house and the water, and sets one intention for the day.
Pendulum and subconscious clearing
Anna works with the pendulum to find and release the beliefs running quietly underneath: the ones behind the overthinking, the people pleasing and the reactions.
Somatic release
Guided work that lets the body let go of what it has been holding. Tight shoulders, a sore back, a whole quarter of pressure, released rather than talked about.
Inner parts healing
Using IFS, Anna helps each person meet the inner critic, the perfectionist and the part that never switches off, with understanding rather than force, so old wounds can finally heal.
Journalling and intentions
Guided journalling that moves people from blame to responsibility. They see the stories that keep them stuck, take back their own power and set clear intentions to carry home.
Connected breathwork
A deeper breath practice that moves stuck energy and emotion. People come out of it lighter, clearer and wide awake.
Music clarity immersion
Lying down, eyes closed, held in sound. The mind goes quiet and the clarity people have been chasing at their desks arrives on its own.
Light Activation
The closing activation that anchors everything from the day, so your team leaves lit up, aligned and back in their own power, ready to take it into work.
Anna shapes the order of the day around your team on the call beforehand. Over two or three days, the work goes deeper each day.
